Diseased fish samples were collected from Maharashtra, India for the isolation of pathogenic bacteria. The pathogenic bacterial isolates were identified using 16S rrna gene sequencing analysis which revealed that they were 99% identical with Aeromonas jandaei. The bacterial isolates were further characterized using biochemical methods. The lowest bacterial dose which caused 50% cumulative mortality (LD 50 ) in Pangasianodon hypophthalmus was 8.84 X 10 5 CFU per fish. This was achieved by injecting the fish intraperitoneally with pure culture of A.jandaei isolated from diseased fish. Histopathogical studies revealed necrosis hemorrhaging, and other cellular alterations of different tissues of collected organs viz. gill, liver, and kidney of P. hypophthalmus, observed with the diseased conditions. * Corresponding author: kundankumar@cife.edu.in
2 Kumar et al., Introduction The genus Aeromonas comprises a collection of gram negative, catalase and oxidase-positive, glucose-fermenting motile bacteria (Abbott et al. 2003). It is a ubiquitous inhabitant of aquatic ecosystems, such as freshwater, coastal water, and sewage, although it has also been described in connection with fish and human diseases (Wu et al. 2007). Aeromonads have a broad host range, and have often been isolated from humans with diarrhea, as well as from fish with hemorrhagic septicemia or motile Aeromonas septicaemia (Rhaman et al. 2001). Within the aeromonas group, Aeromonas hydrophila, A. sobria, A. veroniiand, and A. salmonicida are considered important fish pathogens (Subagja et al. 1999). In fish, A. hydrophila is generally considered an opportunistic pathogen or secondary invader, but in some conditions, such as stress or poor immune function, it may also be a primary pathogen (Thorpe and Roberts, 1972). P. hypophthalmus is an excellent species for inland aquaculture as it is fast growing and is highly desirable in European markets (Singh and Lakra, 2012). P. hypophthalmus is a hardy species and can be cultured at very high stocking density but is susceptible to various microbial and parasitic diseases resulting in poor growth and economic loss to farmers. Disease outbreak is a major constraint in intensive aquaculture systems resulting in mortality and reduced yield. With the increase in the culture of P. hypophthalmus in India, the outbreak and spread of bacterial infections is a major concern. Although information from India on bacterial diseases is sparse, studies from other Asian countries suggest that a number of bacterial diseases infect this species. Among these are bacillary necrosis in Pangasius (BNP) caused by E. ictaluri, and motile aeromonas septicemia (MAS) caused by Aeromonas spp., mainly A. hydrophila, A. sobria, and A. caviae (Subagja et al. 1999; Ferguson et al. 2001; Crumlish et al. 2001; Yuasa et al. 2003). There has been no systematic study of the diseases of farmed P. hypophthalmus in India. Identification of the diseases and their causative agents will help develop strategies to control and prevent the incidence of diseases in farmed P. hypophthalmus thus reducing loss to farmers. The aim of this study was to investigate disease outbreaks in cultured P. hypophthalmus and identify the etiological agent based on morphological and biochemical characteristics, and 16S rrna sequence analysis. Pathogenicity was confirmed by challenging healthy P. hypophthalmus through intra-peritoneal injection of pure culture of the bacteria, isolated from diseased fish. Material and Methods Isolation of bacteria from moribund fish. Diseased samples of P. hypophthalmus from Maharashtra, India, were collected for the isolation of pathogenic bacteria. The moribund fish, showing reddish lesions near the pectoral fins and belly region, were used for bacterial isolation. Fish were sacrificed by giving them an overdose (50 µl/l) of anesthesia (clove oil) (Merck, Germany). The fish were then cleaned with alcohol and dissected. Swab samples of liver, kidney, and spleen were taken aseptically and plated directly on BHI Agar (Himedia); then fresh tissues were preserved in neutral buffered formalin (NBF) for histopathology. The plates were incubated for 24 h at 28 0 C for colonies to appear. Single colony isolates were selected and re-streaked on fresh BHI plates to obtain a pure culture. Molecular identification by 16s rrna sequencing. The genomic DNA was extracted from the bacteria using Qiagen Kit (USA) following manufacturer s instruction. The 16S rrna gene amplification was performed with primer UFF2: 5 GTTGATCATGGCTCAG 3 and URF2: 5 GGTTCACTTGTTACGACTT 3 (Weisburg et al. 1991). Amplification was performed in thermal cycler (ESCO, USA) using the following programme: 1 cycle of 94 C for 5 min, 35 cycles of 94 C for 30 sec, 55 C for 30 sec, 72 C for 90 sec, and a final cycle of 72 C for 10 min. The amplified products were checked through 1% agarose gel. Then, the amplified product was purified using Qiagen kit (USA) and sequenced with Bangalore Genei (India). The 16S rrna sequences were blast-analyzed with the NCBI database and Ribosomal Database Project. Bacterial identification and characterization using biochemical methods. The strain that caused the clinical symptoms and mortality was first identified by Gram staining and

Determination of LD 50 of isolated bacteria. To determine the cumulative mortality and the lowest bacterial dose which caused 50% mortality (LD 50 ) in P. hypophthalmus, fish were divided into seven groups with 20 fish in each group. The experiment was conducted in 150 l plastic tanks. The pathogenic bacteria were sub-cultured in 100 ml BHI broth and the suspension was static-incubated at 28 C for 16 hours. After incubation, the culture was centrifuged for 15 minutes at 5000 rpm. The supernatant was discarded and pellets were washed twice with NS and finally re-suspended in 10 ml NS. The bacterial count was determined by standard dilution and plating methods. The suspension was serially diluted 10X to obtain the bacterial concentration of 10 4 to 10 9 CFU/ml. The fish in groups 1-6 were injected with 0.2 ml of bacterial suspension intraperitoneally with final concentration of 2x10 3, 2x10 4, 2x10 5, 2x10 6, 2x10 7, and 2x10 8 CFU/ml per fish, respectively. The control group (Group 7) was injected with 0.2 ml of NS. The experiment was carried out in duplicate. Fish mortality was recorded every 24 hours for 14 days. The injected bacterial isolate as a pathogen was re-isolated from the kidney of moribund fish to satisfy Koch's postulates. Using the cumulative mortalities, LD 50 was calculated following Reed and Muench (1938), Histopathology. After observing and recording external symptoms, tissues from the infected fish were collected for histological analysis. Internal organs such as liver, kidney, and gill from the fish sampled were collected and fixed in 10% NBF for histopathological studies. The preserved tissues were cut into 1-2 mm pieces and washed overnight under a gentle flow of tap water. The washed tissues were dehydrated with a series of different concentrations of alcohol and cleared in xylene; these were embedded into paraffin following the impregnation technique (Leica EG 1140H, Germany). The paraffin-embedded tissue was sectioned at 5-µm thickness using a microtome (Leica RM 2125RT, Germany) and stained with hematoxylin and eosin (Luna, 1968). Pathological changes manifested in the tissue sections were noted and microphotographs were taken (Olympus CX-31, Japan), wherever necessary. Results Molecular identification and biochemical characteristics of A. jandaei. The amplified 16S rrna gene from isolated bacteria was sequenced and BLAST analyzed and the results demonstrated 99% homology with Aeromonas jandaei (GenBank Accession Number: JN644526). The biochemical test showed that A. jandaei isolates were Gram negative motile rods. Other tests revealed that they were negative for H 2 S production, phenylalanine deamination, ornithine decarboxylase, and methyl red, positive for citrate utilization, lysine decarboxylase, VP, and indole. The isolate also shows hemolytic activity in sheep blood agar plates. The molecular sequence analysis and biochemical analysis confirmed that the isolated bacterial sample is Aeromonas jandaei.

4 Kumar et al., There was no mortality 14 days post injection in the control group injected with NS. Most fish challenged by intra-peritoneal injection developed hemorrhagic subcutaneous ulcers of about cm in diameter and reddening at injection sites. Pure culture of injected bacterial isolate were re-isolated from the kidney, spleen, and subcutaneous ulcer, and found to be same as that of the injected strain. The kidneys were shrunken, contracted, brittle, and hemorrhagic. None of the control fish exhibited any clinical symptoms of disease. LD 50 value of A. jandaei is 8.84 X 10 5 CFU per fish calculated using the Reed and Muench method. Histopathology. The clinical symptoms of moribund fish are observed as reddish lesions with hemorrhages on pelvic fin and belly region (Fig. 2). Fig 2: Diseased fish showing hemorrhages in the belly and pelvic fin of P. hypophthalmus Histopathological examination shows loss of secondary lamellae with progressive hyperplasia at the tip of primary lamellae accompanied with mild congestion of the gill tissue section (Fig. 3A&B). The liver section exhibited necrotized hepatocytes with pyknotic nuclei (Fig. 3C). Necrosis in the tubular epithelium was observed in kidney tissue section (Fig. 3D).

H and E staining. Discussion Diseases are major obstacles in the development of sustainable aquaculture practices throughout the world. With the increase in culture of P. hypophthalmus in India, the outbreak and spread of bacterial infections is a major concern. In the present study A. jandaei bacteria were recovered from both diseased, and apparently healthy, P. hypophthalmus. Isolation of these bacteria from ulcerated fish shows its role in the pathogenesis of ulcerative lesions in diseased fish. Our study investigated disease to determine the causative agent involved in the mortality of Pangasius stocks in India.
5 Isolation, Identification and pathogenicity of a virulent Aeromonas jandaei The biochemical test revealed that Aeromonas jandaei are gram negative, motile short rods, catalase, and oxidase positive. Other tests indicated that the strains are positive for citrate utilzation, VP, methyl red and ONPG, lysine and arginine decarboxylase activity but negative to ornithine decaboxylase enzymes. The differentiating features of A. jandaei and A. hydropila were observed in the case of esculine hydrolysis and sucrose fermentation. A. hydrophila was positive to both tests whereas A. jandaei was negative to both tests. The biochemical results in this study were similar to earlier reports of identification of Aeromonas spp. (Carnahan et al. 1991; Abbot et al. 2003; Beaz-Hidalgo et al. 2010). In the present study gill tissue of diseased Pangasius revealed progressive fusion of secondary lamellae, extensive hyperplasia towards the tip of primary lamellae, accompanied by loss of secondary lamellae. Hyperplastic changes in the gill lamellae may be due to cell injury in order to compensate for lost surface area. Infiltration of mononuclear cells along with focal hemorrhages and lamellar fusion on the tips of secondary lamellae were observed in diseased fish. Due to their anatomical location, gills are easily damaged and injury to them causes respiratory dysfunction and osmoregulation. Severe hemorrhagic necrosis of gill epithelium with destruction of gill lamellae and loss of functional integrity of gill tissue with infection of A. hydrophila in Plecoglossus altivelis has been reported (Huizinaga et al. 1979). Generally, gills are one of the main sites for antigen uptake and retention. Higher infiltration of leukocytes in gill tissue in channel cat fish infected with A. hydrophila, have been observed (Grizzle and Kiryu, 1993). This also supports our findings. The liver tissue sections of infected fish exhibited congested sinusoids as well as pyknotic nuclei in the necrotized hepatocytes, and degenerative changes of pancreatic acinar cells along with vacuolar degeneration. Early acute form of necrosis has been reported to be characterized by diffuse damage of cell membranes and swollen cytoplasm with conspicuous lysis of hepatocytes (Huizinaga et al., 1979). Clarias batrachus, Salmo gairdneri, and Ictalurus punctatus, experimentally infected with A. hydrophila, showed signs of necrosis and hemorrhage in the liver and kidney (Angka, 1990; Candan, 1990; Ventura and Grizzle, 1998). A. hydrophila toxins have been shown to be cytotoxic (Donta and Haddow, 1978). Release of bacterial toxins cause acute hemorrhage and necrosis of vital organs (primarily liver and kidney), leading to rapid death due to organ failure (Huizinga et al. 1979). Histological examination of kidney tissues of infected fish reveals necrotic tubules, focal hemorrhages in the interstitium, accompanied with melanomacrophage centers as cellular alteration. Infection caused by aeromonads (members of the genus Aeromonas) resulted in diffused necrosis in the kidney (Miyazaki and Kaige, 1985). Diffuse necrosis of the hematopoietic tissue, glomeruli, and renal tubules was observed in channel cat fish (Ventura and Grizzle, 1988). Extensive hemorrhages and diffuse infiltration of mononuclear cell with marked edema in tubules have been reported in post infection of rohu fingerlings infected with A. hydrophila (Kumar, 2007). In fish, the kidney is one of the target organs of acute septicemia caused by aeromonads, and this organ is apparently attacked by bacterial toxins and loses its structural integrity (Miyazaki and Kaige, 1985). These findings are in agreement with our results. In conclusion, our study showed that A. jandaei is potentially pathogenic to farmed P. hypophthalmus in India therefore more attention should be paid to the effective control of this bacterium through the administration of appropriate antibiotic, or other therapeutic means as well as improving diagnostic measures through the use of advanced molecular techniques. Further research is required to determine the prevalence of this bacterium in culture systems, the virulent factors responsible for infection in fish, and other biotic/abiotic factors that might predispose fish to infection by this opportunistic pathogen.
